The Oxford Textbook of Cognitive Neurology and Dementia provides an accessible and authoritative resource for the busy clinician. It covers cognitive and dementia syndromes across a range of neurological disorders, spanning relevant fundamental neuroscience through to diagnosis and management of complex brain conditions. A key distinctive approach is integration of basic science chapters with those on different types of cognitive deficit or neuropsychological presentation to chapters devoted to specific disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, and movement disorders. Firmly based on the clinical approach to the patient with cognitive impairment and dementia, this innovative new textbook provides essential background knowledge that is fundamental to clinical practice. It reviews assessment of patients with disorders of memory, language, visual perception, executive control, limb praxis, and behaviour. It covers the background pathology, genetics, and brain imaging associated with different disorders and provides up-to-date management recommendations from international experts in the field.Less
